Dawn Gadon didn't set out to open a private practice. She set out to help people get sober — and stay that way.

What she found, over years of addiction medicine work, was that the clinical tools existed. Buprenorphine worked. Naltrexone worked. What didn't work was the system around them: overloaded providers, narrow treatment scopes, and patients who needed whole-person support but got a prescription and a referral.

So she built something different. Dawn Gadon Wellness is a direct-pay practice in Somers Point, New Jersey, where addiction medicine meets hormone health, primary care, and mindfulness — integrated, intentional, and led by one provider who sees the whole picture.

If you've spent years navigating a system that treated your parts instead of your person, you've found a different kind of clinic.
